Gene name: | SIRT1 |
Aging type: | Prevent |
Aging characteristic: |
Tissue type: | -- |
Cell name: | BJ |
Experiment: | SA-β-gal activity assay//Western blot |
Description: | Accordingly transfection of specific siRNA oligos independently targeting SIRT1 and SIRT2 significantly decreased expression of SIRT1/2 and induced senescence as shown by increased SA-βgal activity in BJ fibroblasts. Induction of senescence is mediated by DNA damage as evidenced by formation of-H2A.X foci and activation of p53-p21CIP1 pathway. A slight increase in levels of p16INK4A was also detected. |
